Description

An examination of successful environmental advocacy strategies in East Asia that shows how advocacy can be effective under difficult conditions.The countries of East Asia–China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan– are home to some of the most active and effective environmental advocates in the world. And the governments of these countries have adopted a range of innovative policies to fight pollution and climate change: Japan leads the world in emissions standards, China has become the word’s largest producer of photovoltaic panels, and Taiwan and Korea have undertaken major green initiatives. In this book, Mary Alice Haddad examines the advocacy strategies that persuaded citizens, governments, and businesses of these countries to change their behavior.

Other text

“Effective Advocacy provides a terrific, theoretically innovative introduction to the strategies employed by environmental movements in East Asia to effect policy change—exactly what I look for in a book when teaching classes."—Miranda A. Schreurs, Professor of Environmental and Climate Policy, Technical University of Munich “Which advocacy strategies work—and why—in countries with weak civil society? Effective Advocacy explains how the ‘Asian Tigers’ became green and the important role played by environmental NGOs in this regard. A must-read for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers.”—Aseem Prakash, Walker Family Professor and Director, Center for Environmental Politics, University of Washington, Seattle“Haddad’s fascinating book is essential reading for environmental advocates everywhere. It is full of powerful insights on the most effective strategies for influencing policymaking. Highly recommended.”—Barbara Finamore, Founder, NRDC China Program; author of Will China Save the Planet?
